Large Map PNG Export

I have a large map and when I export to png it loses some detail when looking at it in full size. Can CC3+ stitch multiple files together for instance cutting the map into 4 sections? There has to be a way to export a map with good detail I think I might be missing something!
Help!!
Thanks!!

Remember, CC is vector based, so within the program itself you can always zoom in without loosing detail (except for any raster symbols and fills you use), but a PNG is raster or bitmap based (i.e. it's a bunch of pixels) so there will always be "pixelation" when you zoom in enough.
If you own the 2017 annual, there is also an issue there about large exports that automatically exports the entire map in tiles and also stitches the pieces back together.
Thanks!
6000x6000 is somewhat large, but it isn't a very large export, so the image will of course contain far less detail than the CC3+ map itself. Being able to zoom as close in an image as you can in the CC3+ map isn't really feasible, without getting a multi-GB sized image (my 81920 x 65540 pixel Snowport image offers quite nice zoom facilities, but ended up being a 3GB file. [This was exported as multiple tiles using the rectangular png save as option, CC3+ cannot export files this large directly])
